Following the release of the Domino's Pizza app on the Windows Phone Marketplace, we got to thinking (surprise surprise) about food. More specifically, about how our every culinary whim is catered for by our Nokia Lumia 710. Here are five apps that can lead you to a full and satisfied stomach.
Nokia Lumia 710 - what makes it unique?
It's Friday afternoon, and for many people in the UK the thought of cooking really doesn't seem too appealing. Fortunately your new Nokia Lumia 710 is on hand to offer help with a take away order, restaurant recommendations and even recipe ideas to help you knock something tasty up with minimal fuss.
It can even help you get your weekend off to a bang on the drinks front, too.
Download these apps, pick something to eat and wait impatiently for dinner time...
Fresh out of the oven comes the Domino's Pizza app. It's a store locater, up to date menu and ordering tool all sprinkled onto a single tasty base (regular, no stuffed, since you're asking). Place your order through the app and you'll even be shown the pertinent meal deals to make your lazy evening even better value.
Fancy something specific to eat? Foodspotting offers something different from your Nokia Lumia 710's in-built local search capabilities by showing you specific dishes in your area (including photos) rather than just the restaurants. When you get a specific hankering for a steak (for example), you probably don't care where you eat it - you just want to know where does the best. Foodspotting can help.
So you're stuck indoors, penniless. You've got a cupboard full of random ingredients but you're too hungry to get creative. What do you do? Download Allrecipes, that's what. Enter the dinner spinner, choose a main ingredient and how quickly you want your food and you'll be presented with a list of simple recipes to follow.
Housewives' favourite Gino D'acampo is an Italian chef who frequently lights up the screen with his tasty Italian cooking. We hear he scrubs up rather well, too. Eating Italian provides recipes, videos and tips from the great man himself so you can prepare an authentic Italian meal. Whether you're after awesome antipasti or perfect pasta, there's a recipe here for you.
That's the food sorted, then. What about the liquid accompaniments? We're sure you don't need guidance on cracking open a bottle of beer or picking a nice bottle of red, but 111 Cocktails will give you some nice ideas for pre and post-meal tipples. With a photo for every drink, as well as the ability to search for recipes by the ingredients you have in, it's a sure way to a pleasant evening.
